Suspect Shot, Woman Hit By Car In Store Robbery

HUNTINGTON PARK Two teens were allegedly robbing a Huntington Park store when one of them was shot. The pair fled, striking an elderly woman with their getaway car, and were later arrested, police said Saturday.

The robbery was reported at 6:25 p.m. Friday in the 2400 block of Florence Avenue, near Santa Fe Avenue, said Huntington Park police Lt. Cosme Lozano.

Someone at the business shot one of the teens, Lozano said.

As they sped from the scene in a car, the robbers hit a woman, who was seriously injured and taken to a hospital, Lozano said.

The alleged robbers, 14 and 19 years old, were later arrested, Lozano said.

He did not disclose which of the two had been shot, or the extent of the injury.
